Current Time in Incheon, South Korea

How Incheon Keeps Time

Incheon keeps KST, UTC+9. The live clock normally synchronizes to the site time source and then applies the IANA rules for Incheon; until synchronization succeeds, it uses the device clock as a fallback. Daylight-saving changes are applied only where that zone actually observes them.

Incheon runs on the Asia/Seoul zone in the IANA time zone database, which is UTC+9 right now. There is no daylight saving here, so that offset holds all year and the difference to other places only changes when they move their own clocks.

The sun rises in Incheon at 6:50 am today and sets at 5:44 pm — 10 hours 55 minutes of daylight, with solar noon at 12:17 pm. Those times come from the city’s coordinates (37.46, 126.71), so they shift a little every day of the year.

On the two solstices, Incheon has about 14 hours 45 minutes of daylight in June and 9 hours 34 minutes in December. The difference is about 5 hours 10 minutes, which shows how strongly the local daylight cycle changes through the year.
